Why it's free to use
- Filed February 22, 1978 and granted May 22, 1979. A patent filed before June 8, 1995 lasts 17 years from grant or 20 from filing, whichever is longer, so its term ended February 22, 1998.
- Any extension is capped at five years, so it can't still be in force.
- We haven't checked its US family, and a later related patent could still be in force. We check US rights only.
